2、 Climate

The temperature changes significantly at different elevation and different time. The low cloud and heavy fog in the mountainous area bring a lot of rainfall.

3、 Preparation before Traveling

The temperature changes significantly at different elevation and different time, so tourists should wear proper clothing to avoid catching cold. You can bring overcoat with you or rent an overcoat or down coat in the scenic area with 10-20 RMB rental and 200 RMB guarantee deposit. Clothes should be loose and sweat-wicking. Please do not wear brightly-colored clothing, because it stimulates monkeys easily, causing unnecessary troubles. For women, skirts, dresses, high-heel shoes and new shoes should be avoided. It is appropriate to wear a pair of suitable shoes such as fabric shoes, rubber soled shoes and hiking shoes. With low clouds and thick fog, Mt. Emei is a rainy area, so rainproof should be prepared. An umbrella is inconvenient for mountaineering, thus, lightweight disposable rain cape, which can be bought in the scenic area, is a good substitute.

Notice for winter: The winter of Mt. Emei enjoys reputation for its uniqueness. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, you should try to keep warm and anti-slipping. You are suggested to buy crampons and straw sandals in Chapengzi (Tea Hut) near Hongchunping.

Mountaineering is an energy-consuming activity, besides getting enough sleep, drinking enough water and taking enough food are also important. Drinking water and snacks such as biscuits and cakes can be bought in the food stalls along the mountain road at any time.
